French government survival uncertain as opposition demands Macron’s exit

France’s political crisis deepens as Emmanuel Macron asked Sébastien Lecornu, who resigned as PM, to find a way out of the crisis. Lecornu is meeting with his supports and with oppositions, but it remains unclear if the government can survive. Two major issues dominate the talks, according to FRANCE 24s James André : the budget and the situation in New Caledonia. Meanwhile, President Macron seems to be delaying the inevitable as opposition parties call for his resignation or snap elections.
